Such interventions have taken different forms, and have become increasingly debated.</p></div></div></div>Mon, 29 May 2017 00:11:05 +0000Andréanne Thibault585 at http://marriagemigration.comGovernment of Canada Eliminates Conditional Permanent Residencehttp://marriagemigration.com/document/government-canada-eliminates-conditional-permanent-residence

Since its inception in the 1970s, the federal government has enabled the private sponsorship of tens of thousands of refugees across the country. From the outset, the government pledged to resettle one refugee for every privately sponsored individual when the program was first introduced. Yet government plans for 2017 suggest there will be more privately sponsored refugees than government-assisted refugees.</p></div></div></div>Mon, 13 Mar 2017 16:16:35 +0000Andréanne Thibault580 at http://marriagemigration.comL'immigration de conjoint-e-s au Canadahttp://marriagemigration.com/node/577
